Another highlight this past week was the team's match against Locust Valley. North Shore dominated the three of the four doubles matches and cruised to a 6-1 victory. Joey Sacco and Jordan Ziskin had a great win a fourth doubles as well as Keith Salerno and Amir Noor at second doubles. Team play continues with four matches this upcoming week.
